Hi guys,
I just started using Epic Perl module for Eclipse and having troubles creating
a Perl project located on a remote machine. Here is what I did:
1. New Project
2. Typed Project Name, and unchecked "Use default location"
3. Changed file system to "RSE" and pressed "browse"
4. Created a new "ssh" connection to a remote system
5. Was able to connect to that machine and select a folder where my perl
project is.
6. Press ok and finish
Result:
"Creation Problems- Invalid project description"
When I click on "details" it says:
'rse:/hostname/blah/blah' is not valid location. The location is relative
to undefined path variable 'rse:'.
What can this be? I am able to create a General remote project to that
location without problems. I tried to create a general project from that
location and then changed its nature to Perl Nature, but that has drawback
like: ide doesn't check perl syntax.
Please help.

EPIC is not compatible with RSE. The main reason is that EPIC uses a LOCAL
Perl interpreter to check syntax and perform other tasks, so the source
files must be available via a local file system.
If you are on Linux, then you can use sshfs to mount the remote directory
locally.
